Part 1: I did this avatar before I got the info on the cool ones that have been done on the other websites. I will work on this for a final project...I really loved the colors and the "animalia" the website offered. This is me during the pursuit of a spiritual night of yoga.
Part 2: I like those pictographs that use tiny pictures that create big ones. This is my very first, very elementary drawing. Since there are so many teachers in the class, I figured that I would use a symbol that we would understand. (You have to stand back about 10 ft from the picture). I used the stroke to outline a white letter, then used the fill to change colors to create my picture. This was a lot of fun!
Part 3: I kept working on Part 2 to apply the other tools. Because the above image was made to a specific scale, when I tried other tools, it messed with the design by changing lines, sizes, etc. It just didn't work here and I didn't want to give up my hard work! I took the liberty to use Part 3 for the other tools.
I started with a grid, used a capital "U" and selected and moved each separate letter to fit perfectly into 1/2 inch squares. It turned out to be 32 objects. Once I learned how to select all, modify and transform, I could change and group the format from a larger image, to scale down, and rotate.
